Hospitality
Barish began his career in hospitality working a variety of roles at Planet Hollywood, co-founded by his father Keith Barish, and as a student at NYU Tisch School of the Arts,[3] where he promoted parties at New York nightclubs, eventually becoming an investor in clubs and restaurants, then an owner-manager.[4][5][4][6]
Barish's first major establishment was Moomba, a restaurant nightclub launched in December 1997 in Aruba with four partners.[7] In partnership with Andrew Sasson, Barish launched Light (2001),[8] Light at the Bellagio (2002),[9][10][11] and Caramel (2013), also in Las Vegas.[12][13][14]Joining with partners Noah Tepperberg and Jason Strauss, the trio launched the Marquee in New York's Chelsea neighborhood in December 2003.[15] In April 2004, Vanity Fair magazine included Barish, Tepperberg and Strauss among New York City's "Kings and Queens of Clubs" — noteworthy New York "nightlife impresarios."[16]
As manager and investor, Barish opened several locations in Las Vegas for Gordon Ramsay's restaurant group and Caesars Entertainment.[4][17] Barish and his partners, including wife Julie Mulligan, founded Black Tap Burger and Beer in 2015 in New York as a stand-alone restaurant.[17][18] Since then they have licensed operations in the US, UK, continental Europe and Asia.[19][20]
Movies
On his own or through his production company Branding Inc. Entertainment, Barish has served as producer and executive producer of movies, including Zoey to the Max,[21] Crown Vic[22] and Spin the Bottle.[23]


Wikipedia articles must be written neutrally in a formal, impersonal, and dispassionate way. They should not read like a blog post, advertisement, or fan page. Rewrite the draft to remove:
Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject.
If you have a conflict of interest (e.g. you are the subject, an employee, or a relative) or are being paid to edit, you must disclose this to comply with Wikipedia's Terms of Use.
